Speaking at Royal Portrush ahead of the 2019 Open Championship, it doesn't sound like Justin Rose is a fan of golf's new schedule.

In three career starts at the Open Championship, Justin Thomas has missed two cuts and finished T-53. But it hasn't dimmed his enthusiasm for links golf
British Open 2019: This Nike mini-doc will have you emptying the bank account on Rory McIlroy at Royal Portrush
It's a well-known fact that Nike kills it when it comes to the advertising game, for golf in particular (well, not golf clubs). It helps having Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Brooks Koepka as the guys starring in the ads, but you still have to execute, and Nike always does. A personal favorite that would seem applicable to this week is “Ripple,” which tells the story of a young Rory growing up and idolizing Tiger. Talk about FEELS:
Still might be Nike's finest work, though the latest ad produced by the Swoosh ahead of the Open Championship may be in the conversation as well. Though it's not an ad as much as it is a mini documentary, one that stars McIlroy, who relives his incredible, course-record 61 at Royal Portrush that he shot as a 16-year-old during the stroke-play qualifying portion of the 2005 North of Ireland Amateur Open. As a native of Northern Ireland, it doesn't get much more special than that, which you can clearly see in the way McIlroy emotionally desc..
Danielle Kang throws first pitch at Phillies game, could definitely earn a setup role in the pen
Rich SchultzDanielle Kang grew up in Southern California. She's spent most of her life circling the globe playing golf in bucolic warm-weather climes. The gritty, grafty, Cheez-Whizy world of Philadelphia—where the traffic lights are greased with Crisco and the city icon is a giant orange monster who takes no shit from anyone, least of all Santa—might as well be a different planet. But on Monday night, Kang got herself acquainted with the City of Brotherly Love in the best way imaginable: By heading down to Citizens Bank Park on a steamy summer night for some good ol' Phillies baseball. It was a head first dive into the deep end of Philly culture, but Kang acquitted herself like a true local, kicking off the evening with her first-ever cheesesteak…

Local idiot marries can of Keystone Light because true love knows no bounds
It's the height of summer and love is in the air. Weddings dot the green, rolling hills and new passions bloom on beaches from coast to coast. It's time to be carefree. It's time to take the plunge. And if you're Erik Carboni—a Massachusetts-based chemical engineer/perma-bachelor—it's time to officially tie the knot with a can of Keystone Light. No really, we're not making this up.
FacebookPinterestThis past weekend, Carboni, with the help of a licensed officiant and a full wedding party, wed his longtime love, Keystone Light. An official wedding page helped to guide guests to the intimate backyard venue, including the “bride's” family, who flew in from coolers across America for the joyous occasion.
FacebookPinterestSources close to the groom expressed reservations that perhaps he could do better—that maybe in the long run, a nice dry-hopped IPA would be better for him—but love doesn't play by the rules and the nuptials were eventually sealed wi..
T.J. Oshie funnels beer at American Century Championship, continues proud tradition of Caps’ offseason boozing
After the Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup last summer, they spent the next several weeks attempting to drink the planet dry. Alexander Ovechkin was the chief binge-ologist, but the whole team did their part, sipping, slurping, slugging, and chugging through perhaps the single most protracted championship celebration in professional sports history. This year, the Caps didn't win the Stanley Cup—that honor went instead to the St. Louis Blues—but that didn't stop T.J. Oshie from keeping the party going at the American Century Championship this weekend, where he put on a beer bong clinic for the gallery's adoring iPhone cameras. Bottoms up, Captain America.

Now for an obligatory pop culture reference!

Open Championship 2019: American hero Kevin Kisner rocks ‘1776’ hat to Royal Portrush practice round
The Presidents Cup isn't for another five months and the Ryder Cup not for another 14. The British Open has been the Open Championship for years now and is currently being waged in Northern Ireland, which lies across a literal sea from anything even remotely “British.” But forget all that Logic n' Reason for a moment and instead bask in the semi-sensical glory of Kevin “Nobody Beats Him Because He's The Kiz” Kisner rocking a “1776” hat like a true patriot at Royal Portrush on Monday. The limey redcoats haven't faced a threat like this since Paul Revere Mel Gibson.
